The boat was nice, but with it being under cover, and having to wear headphones for the commentary, you were a little restricted in taking photographs. The cover was glass so you could see everything, but you were a little restricted. You got headphones to plug in, which you took away with you, then you selected the language you wanted to hear. That all worked, but we were unable to alter the volume. A very enjoyable hour, and would have been a godsend if it had been raining. Would recommend, but preferred the open top cruise.

Perfect amount of time 1 hour, lovely and relaxing way to see the history and learn about it with the audio guide included. We had perfect weather for it today too. So that was a bonus. Nice and sunny. So we could see it all clearly. Enjoyed it. Recommend.
